Not really. The options include reducing the size of the image you
submit (where needed to overcome re-sizing limits).

That has nothing to do with the point I was trying to make: that the
perceptual quality of the image suffers if you reduce the amount of
visual information either by reducing the size (in pixels) or by
increasing the JPEG compression.

I snipped away the rest of your post as:

1. It seems a hunt for justification for an untenable position. (Yes I
read that other stuff. Doesn't change my opinion on posting).

2. I just spent 2.5 hours in the woods and my back is sore, my left
ankle burning and I'm in a miserable mood. Phots to follow. Maybe.

3. The SO wants me in the kitchen to work on dinner.
